Left attacking midfielder: Marcus Rashford

Anthony Martial may have started the season well, but Mourinho has gone with Rashford ahead of the Frenchman so far in the Premier League this season.

His future may well be as a No.9, but it’s clear for now if he wants to play for Manchester United, he’ll have to get first-team action on the wing.

Striker: Romelu Lukaku

The big buy this summer, Lukaku has scored in every game since arriving from Everton, with a goal against Real Madrid in the UEFA Super Cup, followed by two against West Ham United in his Premier League debut and a solitary strike against Swansea.

The £75million man has helped Mourinho’s side look invincible and they’ll hope he can carry on his great form throughout the season.

Striker: Zlatan Ibrahimovic

The Swedish legend has unfinished business at Old Trafford after picking up an injury in April that meant he missed the Europa League final.

Before that, he proved he was still one of the best strikers around though, with 28 goals in 46 games, finishing the season as Manchester United’s top scorer.
